Reason for recall
There is a potential for blister seals on the product to present a bubble on the seal area of the packaging. This seal acts as a sterile barrier and, in this event, indicates that the sterility seal has been breached.
A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
